N754pr, sorry, seems it's too late to go back... first Airbus 320 in new colors landed in ZAG yesterday... and yes, it's not far from JAT. We are neighbours, anyway....

Couldn't they have used a little more imagination?

I am shocked and disturbed!!
I can hardly believe that Croatia Airlines changed the colors into this, well, crap! ... I mean first JAT comes out with these new dots (or simply traffic lights) now Croatia has new squares, what are they racing which airline will have less interesting colourscheme?! It certainly looks like that. Oh my God... I have a feeling these airlines will never learn!
I think old colors were kind of nice, blue stood up for the sea, and now when planes are all white - standing for what!? I don't get it. I thought only JAT was silly enough to go for such an image, but apparently not the only one.
By the way, I had no idea that Croatia Airlines was planning livery change, or corporate image change!? Apparently they have changed the tail design and removed blue belly from the airplanes, but the logo remained the same!? What is that!? Image change!?

This is a disaster. It is a very ugly livery. Croatia is a small country and needs a good looking national airline. I think they will damage their good image if they use this.
Can you imagine a JAT airays 737 and a Croatia airlines a320 next to each other, they will look like they come from the same parent airline. Croats and Serbs won't like that!

Looks like the airplane is on short term lease!!!!
Looks very unfinished surely bold billboard titles would have been a little better.
where do you take the corporate i.d from that???very poor

Eventhough you can't see it clearly from the attached photo, it looks like blue belly stays...
Croatia is not changing anything except the tail on their aircrafts.
It's not that I like it, but there is quite a difference if you compare it with JAT.
I agree that the girl who designed it (Ivana Ivankovic, corporate designer, hopefully unemployed soon...) needs some more imagination.

Sure, not the most imaginative in the world, but not a complete disaster. I do agree that as a small country, Croatia probably needs a bit more prominence. This doesn't help, but it's not unattractive.

Blah. I like the older livery better. The tail doesn't seem all that imaginative. If it were something more profound, then it would make the rest of the body not so plain looking.

Doesn't look that bad. They're smart, they'll continue to save a lot of money on paint repairs!

I do not find it so horrible but it would have looked a lot nicer if the whole fuselage was painted in the same way as the tale, like the Croatian national football-teams shirts. Or my imagination is sick

It looks very similar to the new JAT livery, they would of been the same if they used billboard style lettering for the 'CROATIA' titles. I'm sorry to say that the tail now looks a little bare. They should of made the squares larger.
25 Positive rate: I don't like it, it's too bland and boring.
26 Kevin752: I think that the new livery looks unfinished but I guess it is not too bad. I mush rather see the old livery in stead. I hope to fly Croatia AIrlines
27 Dragon-wings: It looks the same as the one they have now (except for the tail of course)
28 AWspicious: Oh, I dunno... I don't think it's all that bad. Kinda like it, actually. Just wished the painted the engine cowling white... Maybe with the same check
